Eric Weston
內容大綱
Eric Weston is struggling to keep his garden supply business alive. Revenues are up slightly from last year but profits are down in a poor economy as he attempts to integrate an expensive recent acquisition. The deal he struck with the old owner restricts a number of his options and the banker has turned the loan over to the workout division. He feels that his suppliers are willing to work with him and his employees depend on him for their livelihood. At the banks request, an outside consultant has been brought in to make their recommendations. He has made personal guarantees to the bank, loan payments to the old owner are about to come due and Weston is faced with some unanticipated expenses. The company's cash situation is very tight and he is forced to evaluate the liquidation value of the company as he considers the actions to take to avoid failing in his dream to have his own business. The case is a rewritten version of a previous case 899-212, updating the dates and financial data to 2012 timeframe.
